Review of Sisters (2015)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 14 Aug 2017

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 14 Aug 2017

Review of Crimson Peak (2015)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 14 Aug 2017

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 14 Aug 2017

Unfortunately, the film fumbles the ball, retreating back to sentiment and sanctimony, with a lot of sweeping strings and lofty speeches about…

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 14 Aug 2017

The damn film stinks like week-old fish, but that is certainly not its worst crime…

Review of Train to Busan (2016)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 14 Aug 2017

Certainly, the film is grim in many ways, but there is also great, almost astonishing, beauty…

Review of Jackie (2016)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 14 Aug 2017

Jackie is a self-serious affair, and despite its dedication to getting under the skin of the former first lady, it remains largely on the surface…

Review of The Big Short (2015)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 14 Aug 2017

The Big Short is one of those rare creatures that walks the razor line between blackest comedy and deepest tragedy…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 14 Aug 2017
